Invulnerabilities: like all Eternals, Kryptonians have several invulnerabilities.

  • Invulnerability: Am/50 resistance to all attacks
  • Cold, Radiation, Toxins & Disease: CL 1000
  • Life Support: CL 1000, Kryptonians have no need to eat or breath while exposed to an abundant source of cosmic energy like our sun.

Cosmic Energy Manipulation: Kryptonians can channel cosmic energy like any other Eternal. Common power stunts include

Weaknesses:

Kryptonians are vulnerable to Krytonite an irradiated ore from their home planet of Krypton. They are powered by a particular wavelength of cosmic energy, which happens to be rather abundant in our sun. Kryptonite either destroys or interrupts this because it's radiation is in a band, which is similar to sunlight, but causes a different process to occur. In other words, the kryptonite radiation "chases out" the sunlight.

Green Kryptonite: causes his body's cells to deteriorate, similar to radiation poisoning in a human being. Exposure to Green Kryptonite causes a Kryptonian to lose all his powers at -1CS per round. He also loses 1 rank of Strength and Endurance (with its loss of Health) per round until death occurs at Shift-0 Endurance. Removal of the Green Kryptonite enables Superman's body to regain lost ranks at a rate of one per round.

Red Sun Radiation: the planet Krypton Orbited a red giant, this kind of sun produces a specific frequency of radiation that negates the cosmic energy from a yellow sun. Exposure to radiation from a red star causes complete negation of Kryptonians powers. They return at a rate of 1CS per round following a round of exposure to yellow sun radiation.
